The number of homes available for sale in August 2026 was down noticeably compared to last year in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). Following this trend, home sales also edged lower, as the number of transactions was arguably limited by less choice in some neighbourhoods. Less choice and more competition between buyers could ultimately result in renewed price growth in the months ahead.

📌 Key Stats (YoY % Change):
Home Sales: 5,057 (-2.1%)
New Listings: 12,075 (-14.1%)
Active Listings: 24,482 (-11.3%)
Average Selling Price: $993,410 (-2.7%)

GTA REALTORS® reported 5,057 home sales through TRREB’s MLS® System in August 2026 – down 2.1 per cent compared to August 2025. New listings entered into the MLS® System amounted to 12,075 – down by 14.1 per cent year-over-year.
On a seasonally adjusted basis, August 2026 home sales were down slightly month-over-month compared to July 2026, while new listings were up.
“If inventory tightens and home prices begin to rise, some buyers may face a trade-off between waiting for greater economic certainty and purchasing before prices move higher. At the same time, improving market conditions for sellers could bring more listings to market, providing buyers with additional choice,” said Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB) President Daniel Steinfeld.

📊 June Market Update: Greater Toronto Area (GTA) housing market conditions continued to improve in June, with sales growing quite strongly year-over-year while new listings declined over the same period. For the first halfof 2026, sales have also edged higher compared to the first six months of 2025, with new listings down substantially.

📌 Key Stats (YoY % Change):
Home Sales: 6,770 (+9.4%)
New Listings: 17,282 (-12.9%)
Active Listings: 27,329 (-13.5%)
Average Selling Price: $1,058,658 (-4.6%)

“After a slow start in the first quarter, we saw a marked improvement in home sales in the second quarter of this year. This result followed TRREB’s 2026 outlook, which called for a year of two halves. We expect accelerating transactions and more competition between buyers in the last six months of the year, helping to satisfy pent-up demand and ultimately resulting in renewed price growth,” said TRREB President Daniel Steinfeld.

“While the average selling price was still down year-over-year in June, the annual rate of decline has receded over the past few months. If market conditions continue to tighten in the second half of 2026, selling prices could move in line with 2025 and eventually post some increases. This would give an increasing number of households the confidence to move back into the marketplace,” said TRREB’s Chief Information Officer Jason Mercer.

GTA REALTORS® reported 6,770 home sales through TRREB’s MLS® System in June 2026 – an increase of 9.4 per cent compared to June 2025. New listings entered into the MLS® System amounted to 17,282 – down by 12.9 per cent year-over-year.

On a seasonally adjusted basis, June 2026 home sales were up month-over-month compared to May 2026, while new listings were down, suggesting that market conditions have tightened through the spring.

The MLS® Home Price Index (MLS® HPI) Composite benchmark was down by 5.4 per cent year-over-year in June 2026. The average selling price, at $1,058,658, was down by 3.9 per cent compared to June 2025.

May Market Update: The Greater Toronto Area (GTA) resale housing market tightened in May 2026 compared to last year. Sales increased year-over-year, whereas new listings declined over the same period. As standing inventory has been absorbed, competition between buyers has likely increased in some neighbourhoods. This should see the price trend flatten and ultimately trend upwards in the months ahead.

📌 Key Stats (YoY % Change):
Home Sales: 6,583 (+6.3%)
New Listings: 17,698 (-18.9%)
Active Listings: 26,927 (-13.3%)
Average Selling Price: $1,069,700 (-4.6%)

“Spring sales have been stronger than last year, reflecting improved affordability stemming from lower selling prices and borrowing costs. Sales are forecast to improve further as we move through the second half of this year. Recovery would be further bolstered by positive news on the trade front along with an easing of geopolitical tensions and related uncertainty,” said TRREB President Daniel Steinfeld.

“Inventory levels trended lower over the past year, but buyers continued to have substantial negotiating power through the spring, helping with affordability. Looking ahead, if sales strengthen further relative to listings, selling prices will level off and even start to grow as we move into 2027,” said TRREB Chief Information Officer Jason Mercer.

GTA REALTORS® reported 6,583 home sales through TRREB’s MLS® System in May 2026 – an increase of 6.3 per cent compared to May 2025. New listings entered into the MLS® System amounted to 17,698 – down by 18.9 per cent year-over-year.

On a seasonally adjusted basis, May 2026 home sales were up by 10 per cent month-over-month compared to April 2026 and new listings were down by 2.1 per cent – pointing to a monthly tightening of market conditions as well.

The MLS® Home Price Index (MLS® HPI) Composite benchmark was down by 6.7 per cent year-over-year in May 2026. The average selling price, at $1,069,700, was down by 4.6 per cent compared to May 2025.

• April Market Update: Home sales
increased on a year-over-year basis in April 2026, while the supply of listings trended lower. This suggests that overall market conditions in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) tightened during the first full month of spring.

* Key Stats (YoY % Change):
Home Sales: 5,946 (+7.0%)

"We have experienced an uptick in home buying activity so far this spring. Buyers have taken advantage of more affordable housing market conditions on the back of lower home prices. If market conditions continue to tighten and home prices level off, this could be a signal to intending homebuyers who remain on the sidelines," said TREB President Daniel Steinfeld.

"Lower home prices and borrowing costs over the past year have been a catalyst for some homebuyers this spring. However, we still have a substantial amount of pent-up demand in the marketplace. More certainty on the trade front and an easing in geopolitical tensions would result in further improvements in market activity," said TREB's Chief Information Officer Jason Mercer.

GTA REALTORS® reported 5,946 home sales through TREB's
MLS® System in April 2026 - an increase of seven per cent compared to April 2025. New listings entered into the MLS®
System amounted to 17,097- down by 9.3 per cent year-over-year.

On a seasonally adjusted basis, April 2026 home sales and new listings were up month-over-month compared to March 2026.

Sales were up by a greater monthly rate than new listings, potentially suggesting more competition between buyers in some neighbourhoods.

The MLS® Home Price Index (MLS® HPI) Composite benchmark was down by 6.6 percent year-over-year in April 2026. The average selling price, at $1,051,969, was down by 4.9 per cent compared to April 2025.
